Myconian Imperial Resort

Set above Elia Bay, Myconian Imperial, a five-star member of The Leading Hotels of the World, offers a resort-led stay built around space, views and direct access to one of Mykonos’ most expansive beaches.

The hotel unfolds across a wide hillside, with terraces stepping down towards the sea and much of the property oriented towards uninterrupted views over Elia’s long stretch of sand. There is a clear sense of scale here — more open, more structured and more resort-led than many of the island’s smaller properties — yet the setting keeps it grounded, with the slower rhythm of Elia balancing the size of the hotel itself.

Rooms & Suites

Rooms and suites follow a more classic layout, designed with comfort and practicality in mind. Private balconies and terraces are standard, most positioned to take in the sea, while higher categories introduce outdoor jacuzzis or private pools that extend the living space.

The overall feel is straightforward and well considered rather than overly styled, making it a strong option for longer stays or for those wanting a more complete, resort-style base.

Dining

Meltemi Restaurant leads the morning with a generous breakfast that blends international favourites with local touches, while evenings centre around Celebrities, where Mediterranean dishes are served in a more refined setting.

Nostos Bar Restaurant and Sishu Sushi Bar broaden the choice across the day, offering a mix of lighter, more relaxed dining alongside something a little more polished, all within easy reach across the resort.

Experience

The outdoor areas are a defining part of the stay, with multiple pools — including a seawater option — positioned to take in the full sweep of the bay. Space is well distributed, so even at busier times it rarely feels crowded.

Direct access to a private section of Elia Beach adds another layer, making it easy to move between poolside and shoreline throughout the day without any real break in flow.

Wellness

The spa and wellness facilities add real depth, with a full range of treatments, indoor spaces and a well-equipped gym. Water sports, concierge-led experiences and on-site variety mean there’s enough here to fill several days without needing to venture far.

Where

Located around 10 kilometres from Mykonos Town, with a regular shuttle in place, Myconian Imperial suits those looking for a spacious, resort-led stay with beach access, while still keeping the island’s nightlife within reach.
